Alien Dust

Chapter 392 Appearance
Wu Hen was also shocked.

But then I thought again, the things in the Scroll World were strange. Otherwise, why would I subconsciously feel that the statue of Bai Ze was alive when I saw it?

"Why are you here?" Wu Hen asked.

"This fairy has been waiting for you here for a long time. Not only did you not offer my favorite fruit, but you also asked me so ruthlessly and coldly!" Bai Ze said angrily.

"The main reason is that this dilapidated rain temple does not quite match your sacred and noble temperament." Wu Hen said.

"Of course the God of Fortune told you that you would appear here sooner or later!"

"It really was mailed to me, and it was mailed on the road in front of me. It's awesome. He is worthy of being the true god of the scroll world." Wu Hen couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of this world.

"As for the God, this is it." Bai Ze said.

"But not many people in the world worship you, and the incense offerings are a bit shabby. I feel that in a few years your Rain Temple will be taken over by some businessmen who will sell maps." Wu Hen said.

“What do you know!” Bai Ze was a little angry, then he raised his proud chin, and his snow-white tassel beard slid down, “Real immortals have long transcended the secular world. They will not compete with mortals for the essence of heaven and earth, will not interfere with the karma and opportunities of the world, and will not force the world to believe... Not disturbing is the last kindness we immortals leave to the world!”

It sounds quite reasonable.

Some truly transcendent beings no longer need any recognition, offerings, or worship from the mortal world.

They are detached from everything and act according to their own will. They know that their every word and action will have a great impact on this world, so they try to stay away from it as much as possible and maintain an ethereal state...

Being distant and vague means that as time goes by, there will be fewer and fewer miracles about them in the world.

As the traces of gods decrease, the belief in gods naturally decreases. Most people will choose to believe in new gods that can have a certain impact on their lives. They are actually still in the mundane world...

For example, the Totem Holy Sect.

"I understand. You are gods of a higher dimension and no longer play in this circle." Wu Hen said.

Bai Ze was delighted when he heard Wu Hen's flattering words.

"What were you looking for on the beam just now?" Bai Ze asked curiously.

"The Tianxuan Holy Art is the most powerful secret book in the Holy Sect system. Once you learn it, you will have no rivals in the world!" Wu Hen said.

"It sounds pretty impressive. Now that you're here, I finally don't have to pretend to be the rain god here anymore. The mere offerings from the common people around here have made me look so hungry!" said the divine beast Bai Ze.

"..." Wu Hen didn't know what to say for a moment.

Could it be that Bai Ze has been squatting here all these years, playing the role of the white lion in the temple?

Even beggars know that they have to go to more prosperous areas. How can they expect to receive offerings of delicious fish and meat in this poor and sparsely populated civilian area?
"Let's go, take me to taste some fairy fruit and nectar." said the divine beast Bai Ze.

"You're going to follow me out like this, shaking your big white lion hips. If people see me kidnapping the rain god they have worshipped for years while walking on the street, they will definitely break my legs," Wu Hen said angrily.

"I'm a god. You just need to find a gourd and I can just crawl into it. Then, you can cast a spell and turn me into a lifelike stone statue. Isn't that a piece of cake?" said the divine beast Bai Ze.

"Oh, oh, you are proficient in magic, I forgot that. By the way, how is your fighting ability? I have encountered some tricky things recently, but I don’t want to let my little dragon take action. If I offend some big guys in this holy sect, can you defeat them?" Wu Hen asked.

"You don't give the horse grass to eat, but you still want it to run?" Bai Ze said angrily.

"We can only do things as big as our abilities. If you want to be more capable..."

"You have to find all my miracles so that I can become more powerful. I also have a fairy temple in Cangchu Divine Realm. If I collect the miracles offerings there, I can be almost as brainless as you." Bai Ze said.

As soon as the word "brainless" was mentioned, a witch dragon immediately rushed out of Wu Hen's body. It opened its mouth and directly turned the entire Rain Temple into a black void, as if dragging the surrounding space into another dimension.

"Help! It's eating people!" Bai Ze screamed and quickly hid behind Wu Hen, "How did it grow so big all of a sudden?!"

Xiaoyi obviously wanted to scare the divine beast Bai Ze, and seeing it trembling, he proudly shook his long black body and returned to Wu Hen's body.

"I haven't been wandering around these years. My main purpose is to provide for it," said Wu Hen.

"Hmph, I've had bad food these years. Even if the food is better, it's not worse than this!" Bai Ze said unconvinced.

"You haven't been living by begging in the Rain Temple all these years, have you ever gone hunting on your own?" Wu Hen asked.

Hearing the word begging, Bai Ze was furious and transformed into an ancient beast to roar at Wu Hen...

But soon, Xiaoyi turned into a coiled dragon and appeared behind Wu Hen. The figure of the evil dragon was so majestic that it looked like a black sacred mountain, and it instantly suppressed Bai Ze's arrogance.

Bai Ze immediately became a little docile, but she still said in a tough tone: "Wait, when I replenish the essence of heaven and earth, I will definitely let you know how powerful this fairy is!"

"I'm going to buy a gourd to put you away. You wait here." Wu Hen said.

Bai Ze is a vengeful person. He still can't let go of the fact that Xiao Yi swallowed his glass nest, so he always tries to provoke Xiao Yi. But Xiao Yi now is no longer the broken sword he used to be in the Scroll World. He has returned to the state of the Black Miracle Dead Sword.

Bai Ze doesn’t have very high requirements for gourds, even a small gourd for wine will do.

Wu Hen went to the street to buy one, drank the wine in one gulp, and then returned to the Rain Temple.

To be honest, it was a bit unexpected to meet Bai Ze while doing a side quest about human relations, but Wu Hen was short of manpower now, and Bai Ze's arrival gave him an extra layer of protection. Taking the small gourd, Wu Hen was about to take Bai Ze away, but he saw a large group of people surrounding the Rain Temple. Most of them were locals living nearby. They pointed at the Rain Temple, looking angry but not able to speak out.

Wu Hen was shocked, thinking that Bai Ze had run out by himself and eaten the pedestrians on the road. After all, the divine beast was also a ferocious monster in the past, and it only gained divinity after it cultivated to a certain level.

But when he got closer, Wu Hen saw a jade sculpture placed in front of the Rain Temple. A group of people in official uniforms were holding sledgehammers and lying on the ground in a disorderly manner, as if they were shaken out by some force.

"What's wrong?" Wu Hen hurriedly asked passers-by.

"These local officials want to destroy the Rain Temple and worship the Qilin. But for so many years, Bai Ze has been worshipped here. Even if they want to change it, they should properly move the Rain Temple and the statue of Bai Ze to other places. How can they enforce the law so violently? Aren't they afraid of being struck by lightning?" said an elderly man.

"This is weird. We can usually go in and out without any problems, but why were we pushed out as soon as we arrived at the temple this time?" said a local official.

"You can't do this, at least move the temple, don't destroy it like this!"

"We are also following orders. From now on, there is only allowed to be one divine beast in Tongtian City, and that is the Holy Kingdom Qilin. Please pay attention during festivals, so as not to make things difficult for us on duty!" said the leading local official.

"This is too overbearing. Does Qilin control the weather and farming? We ordinary people just hope to have more harvests every year. What does cultivation and becoming a saint have to do with us? Why do you care what we worship?" one of the old men said angrily.

"We don't care what you worship, but we manage this land and this temple. We will turn this temple into a Qilin Temple in accordance with the will of the Holy Emperor. You don't have to believe in it or make offerings, but if you dare to damage it, slander it, or blaspheme it, we will arrest you according to the law!" The local official was also merciless.

What they believe in depends on what temples there are where these people live.

If there is a Buddhist temple, you should visit the Buddhist temple. If there is a Taoist temple, you should go to the Taoist temple!

As officials of Tongtian City, how could they not know the nature of ordinary people?
Anyway, if we destroy the Bai Ze Yu Temple and replace it with a new Qilin Temple, there will probably be some dissatisfaction in the first year, but in the second and third years, these people will not honestly buy incense and candles and offerings...

"Alas, why call this Tongtian City? Just call it Qilin City!"

"Just call it Shenglan City."

"Don't say that!"

As soon as that person was mentioned, everyone became nervous, including the local officials, who glared at the crowd.

Kirin?

Holy Mist?

Could it be that they are referring to his cold-blooded sister Cai Lan?
In Shengbang, she is called the Qilin Girl.

She also keeps a Qilin beast.

Now all the mythical beast temples in Tongtian City have been transformed into Qilin temples, and no other mythical beasts are allowed to appear.

This woman, her divine influence is so great, she is like an empress on land, and a living divine emperor in heaven?
"This Bai Ze divine beast is very spiritual. Adults should think twice!"

"Yes, we pray for rain. As long as we offer satisfactory offerings, we will be able to receive rain. Please do not offend the gods in the temple like this!"

The local officials simply ignored what the people said.

"This shabby temple can still show miracles?"

"Listen to me, everyone. Carry the Qilin statue directly in and pass it through the inspection of the Holy Sect first. When we have time, we can smash the Bai Ze statue inside!" said the black-faced official.

A group of people in official uniforms immediately knelt under the majestic Qilin statue and then lifted it up.

The Qilin statue is two sizes larger than the Bai Ze statue.

They placed the Qilin statue in the temple, and the Bai Ze statue was completely blocked. When looking from the outside in, it really was transformed into a Qilin Temple!
"Let's ask the craftsmen to come over and repair those dilapidated places. They can't be left so old. I heard that the Qilin girl often comes down to the mortal world and wanders around our Tongtian City. Don't let her see the shabby appearance of this temple!" said the black-faced official.

"Okay, come and repair it early tomorrow morning." The subordinate responded.

The group of people finally completed the task and were about to go back to rest.

But as soon as these people stepped out of the Rain Temple, they heard a creaking sound behind them.

They turned around suddenly and found that the majestic Qilin statue had cracks. The cracks quickly spread from the inside to the outside and spread across the entire stone statue.

"boom!!!!!"

Suddenly, the Qilin statue shattered, and a large amount of stones splashed out of the temple and scattered on the streets.

There was a large group of people gathered outside the temple, all of them with a look of panic on their faces. No one knew who took the lead, but they suddenly knelt on the ground, followed by others who also knelt down!
“It worked, it really worked!”

"I told you it would anger God!!"

“You can’t do that!”

Wu Hen looked at the gravel on the ground which was no different from powder and shook his head helplessly.

Fairy Bai Ze is really angry this time!
